Proposal for Support for the Fourth MC4BSM Workshop and the Workshop on Missing Energy Signals at LHC; Davis, CA

该提案将为2009年4月在加州大学戴维斯分校举行的两个国际研讨会提供部分支持。两个工作坊？大型强子对撞机丢失能量信号？研讨会，第四研讨会在？超越标准模型物理的蒙特卡罗工具？（MC4BSM）系列将在加州大学戴维斯分校举行，并连续几天举行。大型强子对撞机丢失能量信号？四月一日的研讨会？2和MC4BSM在4月3日？4、2009。目的是什么？LHC丢失的能量信号？研讨会将讨论用喷流/轻子加上缺失的能量信号寻找新物理的策略，以及如果在大型强子对撞机（LHC）上发现这些实验信号，如何识别新物理。缺少能量信号的新物理学是高度激励的，因为大多数具有暗物质候选物的新模型将在暗物质粒子逃离探测器时在对撞机上产生这样的信号。然而，寻找这样的信号和识别潜在的物理是非常重要的，因为背景和探测器需要很好地理解，以建立这样的信号事件和丢失的信息被丢失的粒子带走需要重建，以识别新的物理。研讨会将汇集这一领域的实验学家和理论家，讨论从实验搜索到模型识别的问题的最佳方法。MC4BSM系列研讨会旨在将有兴趣开发和使用蒙特卡罗工具的理论家和实验家聚集在一起，以超越标准模型物理，试图为大型强子对撞机的数据分析做好准备。由于已经存在大量用于研究低能超对称，特别是MSSM的优秀工具，因此本次研讨会将转而关注用于替代tev尺度物理模型的工具。更广泛的影响是，在大型强子对撞机时代，新物理学的发现将需要实验家和理论家之间的密切合作。这些研讨会通过详细的讨论和思想交流为这种合作提供了一个平台。将开发新的工具和策略，使新物理的研究和实验搜索更加有效。充满活力和力量。重点将是加强理论家和实验家之间围绕研讨会主题的讨论和合作。所有的演讲都将被记录下来，并与幻灯片&amp；#64257；在研讨会的网站上，大家都可以访问。

This proposal is to provide partial support for two international workshops to be held at the UC Davis in April 2009. The two workshops ?Missing Energy Signals at LHC? workshop, and the fourth workshop in the ?Monte Carlo Tools for Beyond the Standard Model Physics? (MC4BSM) series are to be held at University of California, Davis and take place on consecutive days, ?Missing Energy Signals at LHC? workshop on April 1?2 and MC4BSM on April 3?4, 2009. The purpose of the ?Missing Energy Signals at LHC,? workshop is to discuss the strategies to search for new physics with jets/leptons plus missing energy signals and how to identify the new physics if such experimental signals are discovered at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). New physics with missing energy signals is highly motivated as most new models with a dark matter candidate will produce such signals at the colliders when the dark matter particles escape the detector. However, searching for such signals and identifying the underlying physics are highly non-trivial because the backgrounds and the detectors need to be understood very well in order to establish such signal events and the missing information carried away by the missing particles needs to be reconstructed to identify the new physics. The workshop will bring together both experimentalists and theorists who are experts in this area to discuss the best approaches to the questions from experimental searches to the model identifications. The series of the MC4BSM workshops aims to gather together theorists and experimentalists interested in developing and using Monte Carlo tools for Beyond the Standard Model Physics in an attempt to be prepared for the analysis of data focusing on the Large Hadron Collider. Since a large number of excellent tools already exist for the study of low energy supersymmetry and the MSSM in particular, this workshop will instead focus on tools for alternative TeV-scale physics models. The broader impacts are that the discovery of new physics in the LHC era will require close collaborations between experimentalists and theorists. These workshops provide a platform for such collaborations through detailed discussion and idea exchanges. New tools and strategies will be developed to make the studies and experimental searches of the new physics more effective and powerful. The emphasis will be to enhance the discussion and collaborations between the theorists and the experimentalists along the topics of the workshop. All the talks will be recorded and posted together with the slide files on the workshop website for everyone to access.
